Airpath Compass had been hanging from windscreen for 40 + years. I liked it.
Sent pictures to Airpath and A/S - Catalog pictures of Compass woefully weak. Pictures of Compass brackets even worse. Just sell me what I have been using; just BRAND NEW! Never rec definite answers. Walked a away.
Purchased the new PAI 700. Vertical Card Compass . Will hang from Windscreen reinforcing center strip same location.
INstall could become quirky. PAR suggest replacing the steel 10-32 machine screws w brass or Stainless Steel. One screw holds the mount; replace one above and below on the center strip. Perhaps this will calm down the Aether that N. Telsa so fervently claimed.
5/8" L machine screw orig. hard to locate so the tip is to purchase pkg of 12 SS washers - purchase 3/4 " M Screws and use 2 SS washers under head of screws and now you have the 5/8 " L desired.
I hung the brackett - A/P IA will hang the compass and wire lighting - it has dual lamps - claims 4,000 hour life.
